Hollywood Placed Order with Neil Vessey (Storage Tanks)

Equipment from Neil Vessey (Storage Tanks) Ltd was used in the James Bond film, ‘Goldeneye’.

Much of the filming was done in Hertfordshire and the large capacity cylindrical storage tanks used to simulate a Russian nerve gas plant in the story were supplied by Neil Vessey.

The James Bond order came after the art director of the film production company saw one of the North Lincolnshire Company’s national advertisements and contacted it about the tanks. Neil Vessey subsequently supplied six 20,000 gallon capacity storage tanks.

Mr Vessey, himself a film fan, said this was the most unusual use that had ever been made of his tanks. He said “If the film is around as long as the old James Bond films our storage tanks will be on view for the next 30 years or so”.
